TASTING NOTE

Brilliant, medium copper/bronze color. The aromatics are very intense, offering scents of peach, apricot stone, butterscotch, and maple syrup with supporting notes of black plum, fruitcake, and red cherry. The palate substantially agrees with the nose delivering a roasted nuts-driven core with supporting flavors of white pepper, banana bread, honey, and chocolate. The finish is long. Full-bodied and favorably balanced with a supple texture.
